50th anniv ideas for noncrafty person

Working on my parent's surprise 50th anniv. So far I did the invites and have the place.


We will blow up some wedding pics and was planning on doing something like this for when guests come in...

anniv card

Need ideas for centerpieces at the tables. WE'll play some music, but really keeping it simple to a nice place, good food and drinks. That's really what they're into.

Do I need entertainment? Any other decorating ideas? They're wouldn't care for those chalkboard signs or anything cheesy or anything if that makes sense.
Thanks!

What you are doing is fine.
Less is more at a party like that.

Just some background music from Pandora or an Ipod

No entertainment is needed.

Just good food and wine

As for centerpieces if you want to do them, I'd go with small simple floral arrangements

Thanks! THis is exactly what I was thinking and my parents aren't into the cheesy stuff. As long as the food is good and top shelf liquor at the bar. LOL
